Templates
Templates define what data you want to collect in the field — and in what order. You create them in the Iristick.Collector Portal, then use them on your smart glasses via the Iristick.Collector Mobile App.
Think of a template as your digital field form: each step is a trait, score, or action to record.

Why Templates Matter
A well-structured template:
- Keeps data consistent
- Speeds up collection
- Minimizes errors and guesswork
Create a New Template
- Go to the Templates tab in the portal sidebar
- Click New → Template
- Name your template and add a short description
- Start adding steps (called “fields” in the app)
Each step includes:
- A name (e.g. “Fruit Size”)
- A data type (number, text, predefined list, barcode, image)
- Optional: unit label, default value, or field-specific settings
You can reorder steps.
Tip
Keep step names short and distinct. There's not a ton of display in our smart glasses.
